Kay's In Trouble
Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison's re-election may not be so certain.
Senior Texas Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison is no longer enjoying her usually high approval ratings. In the latest Survey USA Poll, her ratings slip across the board. Some of her marks have fallen by as many as 10 points.
I won't speculate as to the cause in Kay's falling numbers. I will, however, reprint what her lone Democratic opponent, Barbara Ann Radnofsky, had to say: "recent news reports showed that Senator Hutchison has abandoned the issues on which she based her announcement to seek re-election, choosing to focus on three issues our campaign identified: veterans’ affairs, education, and health care. She has crawfished on a variety of issues our campaign raised."
Radnofsky has been working hard and aggressively traveling the state to build support. It should be an interesting race.
